Impossible Drag 'n Drop from Outlook Express

I'm out of ideas. All the parts seem to work, but not the whole.

to Michael Santovec [If you start a new message, can you drag a
message into
the new message (it should become an EML attachment)?]: yes, it works,
the
attachment appears..

Try system file checker.
Start | Run and SFC /scannow
Also disable any programs running in the background (especially
antivirus
stuff) to see if they could be screwing things up.

I've already tried it, unfortunately no results (I mean every Windows
file
seemed to be OK), but I'll try again.

I've got a strange problem with Outlook Express: when I try to drag
& drop
e-mails from it to an external folder, the copy seems to work (the
symbol
+
appears), but as I release left button there isn't a copy of the
e-mail
I've
dragged.
This trouble appeared suddenly; it happens only with Outlook
Express.
I tried a System Restore but it didn't work (it's impossible to
terminate
the whole process after rebooting).
I followed the procedure of Microsoft Knowledge Base (article no.
318378)
but I can't reinstall Internet Explorer (the message "Setup has
detected a
newer version of Internet Explorer already installed on this
system. Setup
cannot continue." still appears).
What can I do to get rid of this problem?

Thanks to all (sorry for bad English).

Go to File | Identities and set up a new Identity and see if that fixes it.

If not, then try going to start | Run and type msconfig and disable all
non-MS services and all startup items and reboot and see if the problem
persists.

If that doesn't help, then you might try re-registering dlls for OE such as
msoe.dll and inetcomm.dll

@ Jim: I've tried dragging an .eml file to preview and a copy was added;
tried the contrary, doesn't work.

@ Steve: first two suggestion didn't work, I'll try the last (I've
downloaded two new copies of that .dll's from www.dll-files.com).

I put msoe.dll in C:\Programmi\Outlook Express and inetcomm.dll in
C:\Windows\System32. Right?
Maybe I was wrong, but with these new .dll's now I can't open OE!
There are two errors:

1. "Out of memory", error no. 0x8007000E, 126;
2. Impossible initialize MSOE.DLL.

Hi Bruce, thanks for your answer.
I've just tried, unfortunately your suggestion didn't solve this
problem -
It's quite the same with other identities.

Do you have the original DLL files to put back?

Downloading DLL files is risky. You may have mixed versions that aren't
compatible with each other and other parts of OE.

On my system, those files are located at
"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msoe.dll"
C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetcomm.dll

@ Steve: I've tried this:
If that doesn't help, then you might try re-registering dlls for OE such
as msoe.dll and inetcomm.dll

I've downloaded two new copies from dll-files.com, installed and
re-registered, but I can't solve this problem.

@ Steve:

I've downloaded (from www.dll-files.com) two new copies of these .dll's, but
after re-registering I wasn't able to solve this problem.

Y put it as Emily's File work. What is it again

As Michael indicates, its very unwise to download dlls from people. I think
its also illegal. How do you know you have the correct versions.

Go to Start | Run and type

SFC /scannow

Then see what happens.
